Revealing novel protein interaction partners of glyphosate in Escherichia coli.

Despite all debates about its safe use, glyphosate remains the most widely applied active ingredient in herbicide products, with renewed approval in the European Union until 2033. Non-target organisms are commonly exposed to glyphosate as a matter of its mode of application, with its broader environmental and biological impacts remaining under investigation. Glyphosate displays structural similarity to phosphoenolpyruvate (PEP), thereby competitively inhibiting the 5-enolpyruvylshikimate-3-phosphate synthase (EPSPS), crucial for the synthesis of aromatic amino acids in plants, fungi, bacteria, and archaea.

Translumbar and Transhepatic Tunneled Dialysis Catheter Placements in the End Stage Renal Disease Population.

For end-stage renal disease (ESRD) patients requiring hemodialysis, reliable vascular access is crucial, especially when conventional supradiaphragmatic options are exhausted. This study reviews the technical aspects, clinical outcomes, and complications of translumbar and transhepatic tunneled dialysis catheter (TDC) placements. These alternative infradiaphragmatic approaches provide essential hemodialysis access for patients with central venous occlusions.

Epidemiology of Acute Compartment Syndrome After Pediatric Tibial Tubercle and Tibial Shaft Fractures.

Background: While acute compartment syndrome (ACS) is a well-reported complication after pediatric tibial shaft fractures, prior literature has suggested that pediatric patients with tibial tubercle fractures may be at increased risk of ACS due to the proximity of the tibial tubercle to the anterior tibial recurrent artery. However, this theory was largely based on a series of early case reports without substantiation in larger-scale studies.

Hypothesis/purpose: The purpose of this study is to conduct a population-level analysis of the incidence and risk factors of acute compartment syndrome following pediatric tibial tubercle and tibial shaft fractures.
